Not every specimen asks to be admired from a distance. This one insists on it.
The Xylocopa latipes, one of the largest carpenter bees in the world, is suspended in a floating diamond display that lets light move through it from every angle. The deep black carapace shifts between matte and iridescent depending on how it catches the light, a quality that photographs poorly and rewards the eye that actually stops to look.
Suspended in a rotating diamond frame. No backing, no distraction. Just the specimen and the air around it.
Ethically sourced. Handmade in Portland, Oregon.
Features:
Specimen: Xylocopa latipes, Black Iridescent Carpenter Bee, Indonesia
Display: 2.76in floating diamond frame, rotates 360 degrees
Orientation: Freestanding display
